The York Revolution sealed a walk-off 2-1 victory against the Long Island Ducks when Ofilio Castro sent a fly ball into right field with the bases loaded and one out in the ninth inning. The sacrifice fly scored Chad Tracy, and the Revs earned their second straight victory.

The win, and the sac fly, by Castro ended what had been a frustrating night for the bottom of the Revs order. York's No. 6 through 9 hitters didn't record a hit, going 0-for-13 with no runs scored. Castro's lone RBI was the group's only offense.

Turning points

• Long Island snapped a scoreless tie in the seventh when No. 9 hitter Dan Lyons drove in Joash Brodin with an RBI single. Brodin reached on a double to left field.

• York scored one run in each of its final turns at bat. In the eighth, York manufactured the tying run thanks to a two-out rally. Justin Greene singled. Sean Smith reached on an infield single to third base. Both runners advanced on an error by the third baseman, and Greene scored on an error by Brodin.

Key performers

• York first baseman Chad Tracy went 3-for-4 and scored the game-winning run. His double accounted for the Revs' lone extra-base hit in the game.

• Revs starter Scott Gorgen didn't figure in the decision, but he allowed just one run on seven hits and pitched into the seventh inning. He struck out one and walked one. Rommie Lewis (3-1) earned the win, pitching a scoreless ninth.
